Gosford will be abuzz with wintery activity this July school holidays as Central Coast Council brings ‘Winter in the Park’ to Gosford.

An igloo village, ice carvings and ice sculptures are just a taste of the winter family fun on offer at this event. 

Council Unit Manager Community Partnerships, Glenn Cannard said Gosford’s Kibble Park will be transformed into a winter wonderland from Saturday 6 July to Saturday 20 July.

“This year’s Winter in the Park will inspire even the most determined hibernators to get out and about and enjoy the fun,” Mr Cannard said. 

“The live ice carving display by international ice sculptor Kenji Ogawa will amaze you and the kids will love exploring the igloo village – which is also a fantastic spot to capture some fun photos. 

“STAR 104.5 will deliver a live broadcast from the Star Chalet, so there will be no shortage of laughs and great music.” 

Mayor Jane Smith said Council invited locals and visitors to head to Gosford this July school holidays and experience the fun on offer.

“Community members often tell me how much they value this type of Council event, with a focus on family entertainment, creating memories, building a stronger community and supporting our local businesses,” Mayor Smith said. 

“Winter in the Park brings families together for a whole lot of fun in a month when it can be tempting to stay inside. 

“Who wants to stay indoors when you can explore an igloo village and watch an Ice Age show – the Central Coast is the place to be this July.”

Additional Winter in the Park activities include: screen printing; temporary airbrush tattoos; cupcake making; snowflake painting; cardboard snowmen making; mug decorating; and a host of outdoor activities and fun winter craft. 

Winter in the Park will run from Saturday 6 July to Saturday 20 July 2019, starting from 10am each day. Disability parking is available at Eliza Street car park.
